Strawberry, Rhubarb, Orange, Honey Jam image

This is a take on my original Strawberry/Rhubarb jam recipe, and it is one of the most delicious jams I've made so far! The flavors are amazing - strawberry, rhubarb, orange, and honey, with just a little cinnamon. Super easy to make and you won't be disappointed. This recipe makes 8 half pint jars.

Time 1h

Yield 8 8 oz jars, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 cups rhubarb (approx. 2 pounds)
4 cups strawberries (approx. 2 pounds)
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 cups honey (room temp)
1/2 cup orange juice
4 teaspoons orange zest
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
5 1/2 teaspoons pectin

Steps:

  • Dice rhubarb and place in pan with a little water over medium heat and cook until tender.
  • Slice strawberries in quarters and then mash slightly and add to pan with rhubarb.
  • Add lemon juice and bring mixture to a boil. Reduce eat and cook for about 20-30 minutes. Mixture will start to get thick.
  • Add orange juice, zest, and cinnamon to pan and stir together. Continue cooking.
  • In separate bowl, combine honey and pectin. I use sage honey, but clover would be good as well. You want to use a light colored honey.
  • Add honey/pectin to the jam mixture and stir. Cook for about 5 more minutes.
  • Remove from heat and fill jars to 1/4" of top. Recipe makes eight 8oz. jars.
  • Wipe rims clean and screw on 2-piece lids.
  • Submerge sealed jars into hot water at 200 degrees (or boiling) for 10 minutes. You will hear a "pop" sound once jars are removed from water - that is when the lids are sealed. Let cool on your kitchen counter.
